  the gdm info needs to be copied as follows d when you upgrade orca. 


  Here're the commands to get Orca talking again on the login screen.
   Do all of this in the terminal.  Replace username with your sudo user name.

  cd /var/lib

  sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/gdm/.local/share/orca

  sudo cp -r /home/username/.local/share/orca/* /var/lib/gdm/.local/share/orca/

  sudo chown --recursive gdm: /var/lib/gdm/.local

  Then restart your system.
  B.H.

  P.S. this is a a a separte  ap, , so you can adjust speech rate, voice etc with normal Orca prefs before logging in and get things speeded up, or customized as your friend likes.

    Hi,
    Months ago I installed with success Maverick with speech enabled and I got a talking login screen.
    For a friend who already installed Maverick without speech he also wants a talking screen. Is it possible to do so? Can you give me advice or instructions how to do that? He has Orca 3.1.3-xdesktop running.
    I went into System > Preferences > Accessibility but could not figure out how to let the login screen talks.
    Thanks in advance.
